Visualizing Data Section 2.3 Physics

Graphing Data First you must analyze your data carefully. Determine what would be the “best-fit” graph for your needs. X-axis and Y-axis. Independent Variable is plotted on Horizontal or X-axis. Dependent variable is plotted on the Vertical or Y-axis.

Determine the range of the independent variable to be plotted. Decide whether (0,0) is a valid origin point. Spread the data out. Make each division on your graph stand for a convenient unit. Number and label the horizontal axis. Repeat steps for the dependent variable. Plot the points on the graph. Draw a best-fit line through the data. Give the graph a title.

Linear Relationships When a straight line can be drawn through all data points, a LINEAR RELATIONSHIP exists. The two variables are directly proportional. Equation for a LINEAR RELATIONSHIP= y = mx + b

Slope The slope is “m” in the equation. SLOPE: the ratio of vertical change to the horizontal change. It can also be phrased as the rise over the run. Or the change in y over the change in x.

Y-intercept The Y-INTERCEPT: “b” is the point at which the line crosses the y-axis, and it is the y-value when the x-value is equal to zero. When the y-intercept is zero, the equation becomes: y = mx

Parabolic Graphs and Quadratic Equations Two-variables are related by a QUADRATIC EQUATION: y = ax2 + bx + c

Hyperbolas and Inverse Relationships INVERSE RELATIONSHIPS: when the dependent variable decreases while the independent variable increases. Equation: y = a x xy = a
